Better Together

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Better Together Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Better Together a beautiful Horse Painting that was a commission.  Mama Horse and four young horses different sizes of course. The older ones are further in the back and two closer are the babies! Mama is the front horse on the left. 1 John 3:16 "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters." 1 John 3:11–18  speaks of opposites in emotions. The contrast between hate and love.  If you are a Christian believer, love is deeply rooted in your being.  Being the opposite of love, evil is simply a jealous hatred for goodness of love itself.  If you are faith filled, love is expected along with selfless sacrifice such as laying down your life for others.  Christians are expected to do more than feel love, they are to act and ...

Colors of the Sky

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Colors of Sky Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Colors of Sky, small 5 x 7 knife painting of a horse by Laurie Pace.   This was done during a push to do 100 horses in 100 days.  I sold them all one by one each day.  Psalm 103:17: But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children— I always stop and think whenever I see the words "FEAR THE LORD" ... why?  I worship and respect and fall down on my knees for Him. I sin daily and know that HE knows I sin daily. In that way I know I am responsible for what I do and say.  For an unbeliever who does not know God,  there could easily be the fear of the judgement of God and eternal death... a permanent separation from God.  For a believer, that fear is a reverence of our Lord God.  Hebrews 12: 28-29  w...

In Flight

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 In Flight   (We Bow Down) available Oil on Canvas  by Laurie Pace   In Flight with  n atural paint blended for earth tones in this newest small painting out of my studio. Enjoy the next photo with the piling on of paint and color creating the movement of a horse in the storm of life.  A second view and you can still see the paint layers.    Micah 6:8  " He has shown you, Oh man, what is good. What does the LORD require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."    What does it take to have trust in Jesus and in God?  How do you walk humbly with God?  Are you able to act justly and at the same time be merciful with others? That's a challenge. It is believed that those who are 'born from above' are truly endowed with a new life in Christ Jesus. It fills them with the "Godly nature" of Jesus himself.  Wi...

Watching for You

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Available: Watching for You Buy the Painting   Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Watching for You, the newest horse painting is my  favorite!   There was a painting I was working a week ago that just did not work... I scraped all the thick paint off and from the scrapings came these beautiful earthy colors.  I have created two small new pieces newly listed on my website.  There are some awesome close up gallery photos of the paint showing the layering.  This is the essence of these paintings, to pile them in layers.  There is a week delay in shipping as there are still a few areas wet and these oils form an outside layer of skin that dries before the piled paint below it. BUT I did just sign them both and that is wet.  Shop all Paintings Psalm 5:11 "But let all those who take refuge in your rejoice. Let them always shout for joy, bec...

Out of the Mist

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Three out of the Mist Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Three out of the Mist is  an engaging horse painting in colors I rarely paint with.  I was unsure of putting it on my website for sale, but I did and I had it on Facebook and Instagram.  It sold in 24 hours and later the owner sent me a photo of it hanging. It was right at home. I could tie into the Verses below with the lead horse is the strong one leading the others!!! Romans 14:13 "T herefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother."   Romans 15:1  "Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those without strength and not just please ourselves."  These two verses knit together. They are about being strong in faith, or weak in faith and growing, and those that are strong should never pass judgem...

Celebrating Night to Day

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Celebrating Night to Day Acrylic on Birch  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Celebrating Night to Day  a horse painting I LOVE but have never done this process again. I need to do one. This brought me joy to paint it!!!!  James 5:15  "and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. We must pray for others to be always be strong in faith and we all should pray when some one is worried, sick or stressed, or they have family members laid low with health. God answers all prayers if we are sincere and intent with the prayer that is needed.  His answer may not be always what we think it should be, but in truth it is the right answer and He has full control.   Our Life Group from church is amazing.  We have an on going text for all of us to praise and do p...
